Then these things are not allowed on the road, full stop.

If they're not respecting traffic rules, they're not abiding by the law, and so they're legally not allowed.

Ok. Well I want to be dropped off IN the hotel lobby.

Now what?

Not a cyclist because I don't trust other drivers, but fuck that.

What's next, cutting off cyclists because they're not really road users?

Expecting driverless taxis to respect "No Stopping" sign “too high a bar” – because customers want to be dropped off there, autonomous vehicle firm Waymo tells police.

Heh. In the Netherlands, bikes on a bike lane always have priority and as a car driver you can't drive, stop or park on a bike lane.
